I am not doing anything fancy like using droppable functionality. As a
real crude work around, I am keeping 2 objects. The first is not used
for any computing and hence
its state is same throughout. The computing is done using the second
object. After 100 samples, I just copy the first onto the second hoping
the state of second object will
be same as first which is the initial state.

As a user of this library I'd think that if n+m is the current iteration
and you want to go back to state n, the easiest way -as you say- is to
create a copy of the set at n. But if n = 0, perhaps obj.set =
set_type(initial parameters)?
